Books
Do you worry about your child all the time? Maybe they are behind on certain milestones, struggling in school, having difficulty making friends, or heading off to college and away from home for the first time. Their problems or struggles become your own, and you end up feeling so anxious that you forget what it's like to just enjoy being their parent. The good news is that you can rewire your 'parent brain' to respond differently to these challenges. This book will show you how to replace parental anxiety with parental effectiveness. In this book, three anxiety specialists team up to help you change your anxious brain using the core principles of neuroscience and exercises from cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) and mindfulness. You'll learn how to overcome worry by identifying your parental values, paying attention to the moment, and cultivating self-compassion.
